The Forest of Arlynn is beset by early cold weather and thick fogs, smothering the Ruby Waters outpost. From deep inside the forest pillars of smoke can be seen, and many of the larger animals seem to be leaving the forest with packs of starving wolves ranging into the plains near Hope and crossing the Sweet Riding into the Filgiso Forest causing trouble for travellers.
It is believed that there is some trouble afoot that may threaten the outpost, and a guild party is desired to investigate the problem and protect the outpost.

An ongoing invitation to the Dukes seasonal Balls.
Reasonable loot rights.
Scribe Notes
Session 1
Day 1 - The Adventrue Begins
The group was confronted by a Duke runner who was late to the Guild meeting. He explained that there was some trouble happening at Ruby Waters. We then moved into a meeting room and signed the necessary documents. The party consists of: - Vixen the Elf Fire Mage - Uthgard the Hill Giant Mind Mage - Eugene the Human Necromancer - Sno the Elf Fire/Ice Mage - Seraph the Human Namer - Elderan the Elf Air Mage.
It was determined that Sno will be party leader, Vixen is the scribe, Eugene is the primary Mil/Si and Uthgard is our secondary Mil/Si.
We were told by party members not to mention the Demon named ___ as well as to not kill Cloud.
We moved on and walked to Seagate where there was a long line due to the Market day. We made our way through the noble manors to the Duke's Castle, to find out more details about our job. We were taken to the main keep by Lord Martin, where we entered a no-magic zone. We were then taken to a room with a large table full of sand, a man in multicolored robes cast a spell to animate the sand to show a map of the area. We are told that the forest of Arlynn has been covered in fog for the last two weeks which isn't normal for this time of the year. The scouts had sent an initial message but the second message is yet to be received. It has been noted that large predators have been leaving the forest (wolves, bear tracks also sighted). We were informed that there is a Circle of Death in the forest which was caused by the destruction of some death barrels 20-30 years ago during the Dark Circle Campaign. Our job is to find out more information and help out if possible. We will be paid 10,000 silver, and be given a medal from the Duke as well as invitations to future Balls.
On the way back from the Castle, we go through town where the Autumn festival is being celebrated. Vixen speaks the name Lord Amon (Marquis of Fire) and is engulfed by a Bonfire and transported to the Plane of Fire. She interacts with a small fire elemental, who led her to a Molton fire river and makes a Golden Rose for Vixen, and then leaves. Vixen is then met by the rest of the team. A dog comes and talks to the group about the animosity between the Demons - Amon and Aim. And how Murmur the Duke of Thrones (Necrotic demon they pissed off last season) is involved. Vixen and Sno both gain the ability to speak to fire creatures.
They all then leave and return to the plane they came from, against the wishes of Sno and Vixen.
